OSTI ID:7296389
The legislative history of the Energy Research and Development Administration's (ERDA) responsibilities under the Federal Nonnuclear Energy Research and Development Act of 1974 (P.L. 93-577) is reviewed. In particular, the legislative history of the requirements that ERDA formulate comprehensive energy plans and programs for short-, medium-, and long-term is examined. A discussion of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974 points out why additional legislation was thought necessary. The legislative history of the P.L. 93-577 is summarized, with an analysis included of those sections of the Act which relate to the formulation of a comprehensive Federal plan and program. Finally, the progress of the comprehensive plan and program for energy research, development, and demonstration is traced through the Senate, the House, and the conference committee. The Appendix is a brief section-by-section summary of P.L. 93-577. (BYB)
